Internet slow in second floor - RBS750

Would need to know total sq footage of home in feet.

Total square footage of the home including land is 2680 square feet. The distance between the router and satellite I would say is 30-35 feet 🙂
For that size of home, the RBR and just one RBS should be enough...Might test with the other RBS turned OFF.
- Sorry just curious but How come? Wouldn’t that worsen it? Like there’s no harm with having both satellites right? Which satellite should I turn off? The one that’s connected to my PC or the other one in the other room?
Having too much wifi signals in the home can cause too much wifi signal over lap between the RBR and RBS and lead to device connection problems and odd behaviors. There is a sweet spot for Orbi systems.
